Free IPv6 News Servers

Is the "tunnel adapter" and your internet adapter shared? They have to be or nothing will connect. I think it has something to do the way sabnzb is configured...can you try another client too? The Gateway client will need to run and you can do this trick with newsleecher (I'm just trying to figure it out, if NL will work then it's SABnzbd config, if not, we will go from there.)1.cmd>netsh interface portproxy add v4tov6 listenport=119 connectaddress=news.ipv6.eweka.nl connectport=119
2.server address- localhost

Also, you might restart from the beginning, just re-do everything and makes sure everything is setup right. There's something somewhere, I'm trying, but I can't think of anything...besides above.
 
I'm using Windows XP with SP3.

I signed up at Tunnelbroker. I got the following error:

Error: Your IPv4 endpoint is unreachable or unstable. Please make sure ICMP is not blocked.

I googled "enable icmp windows xp" and did the following:

Control Panel > Network Connections > Right-clicked on my connection, Properties > Advanced > Windows Firewall, Settings > Advanced > ICMP, Settings > Check Allow incoming echo request

I got the same error again.

I went to go6.net, registered, and installed the Gateway6 client.

I was unable to share my internet connection (ethernet behind a router on a cable modem) with that connection.

It kept saying:
Internet Connection Sharing cannot be established.

A LAN connection is already configured with the IP address that is required for automatic IP addressing.

I gave up on that.

In uTorrent > Options > Prefences > General, I clicked Install IPv6/Teredo and nothing happened AFAIK.

I ran these two commands in Windows:
netsh interface ipv6 install
netsh interface ipv6 set teredo client

And looked at this forum:
http://forum.go6.net/viewtopic.php?t=99

I added 3653 to the port forwarding settings in my router (since apparently Gateway6 uses that port to establish the tunnel).

Gateway6 was able to connect to authenticated.freenet6.net with my username and password.

Finally, go6.net showed my IPv6 address (after restarting Firefox). And I saw the flying turtle at kame.net.

But the following newsservers don't work in Grabit:
reader.ipv6.xsnews.nl
newszilla6.xs4all.nl
news.ipv6.eweka.nl

I already have an Astraweb account (that works in Grabit), but only use it sparingly.

I also ran this command with no effect:
netsh interface portproxy add v4tov6 listenport=119 connectaddress=news.ipv6.eweka.nl connectport=119

That was my experience. YMMV.
 
Don't know, don't use it anymore.. I said in the very beginning of the tutorial that these could stop working anytime, the IPv6 were just for testing.

Go back to torrents? :lol:

Try a free trial from Binverse or Giganews and you won't ever go back. If you decide you do want to pay (you will get your full bandwidth maxed when downloading, plus you don't have to seed)go with Astraweb it's $11 a month, or get a cheap block account at Astraweb which never expires.
 
In your server connection for NewsBin you enter this?

news.ipv6.eweka.nl
and
port 119?

Try it will a different client and see if you get that error.

You have to have IPv6 installed for you to connect, by using one of the guides in the beginning of this thread.
 
The computer is connected directly to the cable modem via lan port.

Under 'Network Connections' it shows the gateway tunnel (when enabled) on Local Area Connection 4 with a red x. When I click 'diagnose', it prompts me to plug a cable into the network adapter. The 'properties' tab shows the 'adapter' to be working correctly. The display screen of the gateway client shows an active connection.

my backup server is a paid subscription, that i dont pay for. dont assume, you will make an ass out of urself


Well it's not free IPv6 which were talking about, so don't go wining about me or anybody else posting free access to newsgroups, because as I see it, your getting access for free too, so only you should get access to the free IPv6 news servers?
 
im getting 'Error: Your IPv4 endpoint is unreachable or unstable. Please make sure ICMP is not blocked.' :pinch: when trying to Create Regular Tunnel, i dont get it.

at a guess, id say your tunnelbroker.net is down or currently playing up at their end...

im on go6, and if i go to your url above i get redirected to

http://tunnelbroker.net/error.php?e=2
"

however my ipv6 is working fine as i get a dancing turtle at http://www.kame.net/

a valid ipv6 returned at the top of the http://forum.go6.net/ site and all the webpages i force through the sixxs.org by adding .sixxs.org to any DNS reachable web page to force it through their on the fly ipv6 usable cache works fine right now.

for instance this very page forced through it works fine if your ipv6 tunnel is working ok, notice the extra part of the URL on a base url section after the .com to force it through there. it a good way to instantly know if your ipv6 tunnels working at the time.

if your tunnelbroker.net doesnt come back soon try installing a basic windows with ipv6 installed in a vitualbox, then make several copys for each tunnel operator you want to try...

i dont have a tunnelbroker.net account or virtuallbox image set up right now, so cant confirm it's down for you, but right now, the go6 tunnel and newszilla6.xs4all.nl:119: 4 green/green are working fine upto a Download speed: 606.61 KB/s currently on a 10Mbit/s UK VM connection if that helps you rule out these as part of your current problem!

were as news.ipv6.eweka.nl:119: 0
reader.ipv6.xsnews.nl:119: 0
have not worked for me on go6 in over 17 days now.

i assume they broke something when they updated their

netsh interface portproxy add v4tov6 listenport=119 connectaddress=news.ipv6.eweka.nl connectport=119

That was my experience. YMMV.

Try thhis one:

netsh interface portproxy add v4tov6 listenport=1119 connectaddress=news.ipv6.eweka.nl connectport=119

in grabit use these settings

Server address: 127.0.0.1
port: 1119
Connections: 8
 
elevation means run as "admin"

You internet adapter need to be shared with the tunnel adapter.

So it shows it like this?
These are XP! screenshots and walkthrough, Vista and Windows 7 are similar in their settings, I DO NOT know how to connect when IPv6 is already installed, I just know the go6 client (it installs IPv6 support and the tunneling software, so I assume, you would use the cmd prompts to facilitate "news reader clients" to work and Opera as well.

if so, Right click on you internet connection, click Advanced: and you should see this:

Tick, Allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection. And Then select the Hexago Virtual Tunnel connection.

(leave unticked 'allow other network users to control or disable the share internet connetion'.)

Reboot, and then start go6 and all should be good.
